Sir Derek Jacobi - signs in bold blue ink!
Signature: "Derek Jacobi", in blue ink. 5x3 index card.
Classical actor Derek Jacobi (born 1938) was invited to London by
Laurence Olivier to become a founding member of the National Theatre and play
opposite Peter O'Toole in the inaugural production of Hamlet (1963). From
there, he starred in the BBC serial Man of Straw (1972) and in 1976 I,
Claudius. Primarily a stage actor, he made his Broadway debut in The
Suicide (1980). From 1982-1985 he performed with the Royal Shakespeare
Company and also played Hitler in the TV production of Inside the Third
Reich (1982), appeared in The Tenth Man with Anthony Hopkins (1988)
and was the voice of Nicodemus in The Secret of HIMH. Jacobi was
Knighted in Denmark (1989) and England (1994), won 2 Emmys (1989 &
2001), a Tony (1984), and Laurence Olivier Award (2009) - he is truly one of the
all time greats. In a 1992 interview, he said: "I've been acting for 33
years. I've proven I can do it. So any performance now has got to be deeper and
better than that, nothing to do with ego, bravura, look-at-me acting." Fine
condition.
